ISM member Georg Reischauer will be taking on the role of Associate Editor at Industry and Innovation (VHB Ranking 2024: B). Interdisciplinary in nature, Industry and Innovation builds on and contributes to advancing the theoretical frontier within economics, management, and organizational studies. The journal is committed to nurturing the community of scholars by promoting intellectual curiosity, boundary-spanning ideas and academic rigour; by contributing to both emerging and ongoing debates and sketching promising avenues in future research; as well as by providing high-quality, insightful, and timely reviews.

A particular relevant scope of Industry and Innovation are focus themes that the editorial board believes to hold considerable opportunities for future research. The focus themes are meant to provide inspiration for potential authors to conduct work in these areas and to encourage them to submit their research.

The themes are the following (more information here: https://doi.org/10.1080/13662716.2023.2284934, opens an external URL in a new window)

- Innovation, corporate responsibility, and social-value creation

Given that these themes are fully in line with JKU's university-wide research priorities "Digital Transformation" and "Sustainable Development: Responsible Technologies & Management", Georg's role will contribute to JKU's expertise and reputation in these domains.
